Jabber and Rural will know what we were talking about , if we were talking about a  Sheila....

I know it's a woman not sure if there's more to it then that.

Perhaps a woman of questionable virtue?!   

That's my thinking

Sheila is a woman (of any virtue). Calling a guy a Sheila is an insult; as is calling him a big girls blouse. ( Evidently you are not supposed to call one of our geotechnical graduates this in earshot of your boss.)

When I venture into the inner city or hood , They refer to me as the "fat cracker" . Not quite sure what that's about yet. 

[fatfillup]

Just tell him you're not a cracker, you're a saltine American

Slightly off subject but Elroy has a "regional joke" for you'll

So what's the difference between a Northern Girl and a Southern Girl ??

Well.................

A Northern Girl says ...............you can   

A Southern Girl says................you'll can

I once dated an Australian girl, and it was fun comparing coquialisms. She called soda pop "fizzy drinks", and a water fountain was a "bubbler".

I don't  know of much regional terms here in northern California.
We've got
 " Jack In the crack "
" Ghetto birds "
" Wally world "
" Ghetto Mart "
" Bible thumper "
That's Jack in the box, police helicopters, Walmart, K Mart, and lastly anyone whose really preachy about church or even one of those door to door " have you heard the good word " types.

I don't know if any of these are common elsewhere or not, probably are but I've never really been anywhere else.

I probably shouldn't say on this forum what my grandmother calls a Slingshot or what my dad calls Mexicans.

[ken w.]

Do tell about slingshot. I'm not offended by anything.

[skfarmer]

well when mrs sk gets really wound up she may refer to someone as a f--ktard. 

if she is talking to someone else i laugh. if she is talking to me i run for cover.

Well my grandmother calls them ni**r shooters, She also calls Hindu's Diaper heads.

I think we have no need for the N word to be used here..... poor form in my book !

Ken wanted to know, otherwise I was not going to say and did not actually type the word because I don't like the word either.
That term is just something my grandmother calls a Slingshot.
